HERE WE GO AGAIN….NO…ISRAEL DOES NOT REQUIRE AND SHOULD NOT ASK FOR “RECOGNITION OF ITS RIGHT TO EXIST AS A JEWISH STATE”….THIS KIND BUT SILLY COLUMN IGNORES THE FACT THAT SO CALLED “RECOGNITION” CAN BE NULLIFIED BY THE SHOT OF ONE BULLET…SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN SINAI NOW…..THERE SHOULD NEVER BE ANY SOVEREIGNTY BUT ISRAELI SOVEREIGNTY IN ANY INCH OF JUDEA AND SAMARIA….LOOK AT A MAP…..RSK
In the following article, entitled “Say No To A Palestinian State At The UN In September,” which comes via the antipodean J-Wire service, Ron Weiser (Honorary Life President of the Zionist Council of NSW) cogently presents the case against a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood.
Writes Ron Weiser:
‘There is only one reason why the Palestinians are going to the United Nations in September hoping for a unilateral declaration of a Palestinian State by the General Assembly. It is because they are not willing to pay the one price demanded by Israel and the democratic world in negotiations.
And that price is the agreement that the State of Israel can exist and can do so in its current guise – as the Homeland of the Jewish People.
That is what is missing from the Palestinian resolution.
So called obstacles such as settlements, borders, Jerusalem etc are not the core issues at all.
Nor is the existence of a Palestinian State.
The core issue is whether the Palestinians and their supporters can tolerate a Jewish presence, of any size, in their midst.
The consistent policy of the Zionist Leadership has been “Two States for Two Peoples”.
On the 29th of November 1947 that is in fact what the UN agreed upon in Resolution 181 – “A Jewish State and an Arab State”.
As we know, the Jewish People accepted this and the Arab People rejected it.
This has been the pattern ever since – post-1967 in August in Khartoum; Oslo in 1993 ; Camp David in 2000; Annapolis under Olmert; and times in between – our acceptance and their rejection.
And most importantly for those who continue to bury their heads in the sand both on the “ultra left” and “ultra right” – this is the public and repeated and sincere policy of the Netanyahu Government.
Six Israeli Prime Ministers (including Netanyahu) have offered the Palestinians a State, in return for the one real red line Israel has – no Palestinian Right of Return.
As the realisation has dawned on almost everyone, that the Palestinians mean something different from us when we each say “Two State Solution”, we have begun to emphasise that they need to recognise Israel as a Jewish State.
For clarity.
And to avoid the continuing Palestinian double speak to the world and perhaps especially, to their own people.
President Abbas’ stated aim is a Palestinian State where no Jews will be able to reside, alongside a State called Israel to which some 4.5 million claimed Palestinians will have the right to return and which will then be a supposed democratic Bi-National State.
This is a reality that should be accepted by those within our community and those people who profess to be friends of Israel generally, when they attempt to lay blame for why no resolution of the conflict has yet occurred.
The constant belabouring of moral equivalence and of blame equivalence is erroneous and counterproductive.
And it is doing exactly what it is designed to do – pushing our own youth away and depressing those who remain.
The Palestinians are continuing their strategy of trying to get what they want piece by piece, without ceding a single thing.
It is beyond time now for the world to finally tell the Palestinians et al a truth they have been avoiding for Israel’s entire existence and at the same time, lying to their own people about.
The Jewish State is here to stay.
This UN move is a tactic designed to avoid that truth.’
